Since the onset of a global pandemic, providers have been responding to COVID-19 by incorporating additional protocols, procedures, protections, and policies to ensure resident and worker safety. While we know the flu is not limited to a season, we do know that flu tends to be more prevalent in the fall and wintertime. WHCA is collaborating with the Department of Health to offer a two-hour webinar on November 3, from 1- 3 PM to provide information, resources, and tools to help providers prepare for the upcoming “flu season”.
